[Xen-devel] xm block-attach with optional backend parameter



Hey,
I am trying to attach a disk image file stored in a domU as a block device to dom0, using the command
         xm block-attach 0 file:/root/mydisk.img /dev/xvda 1
where 1 is the domain ID of the particular domU that I want to act as the backend/driver domain. I get an error about "Hotplug scripts not working", and I've already posted to the xen-users list for advice on simply getting this to work, but I was hoping that someone here might be able to walk me through the execution path of a block-attach command, so that I can dive into the code and insert print statements everywhere? I've been able to follow what functions are being called and all that through the xm Python code, but I get lost when it starts to communicate with xend. Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks,
Matt
